18 Wheels Lyrics by The Murder City Devils

Empty Bottles, Broken Hearts

0

I never wanted you
To be a sailors girl
To be a truckers wife
To be left behind
You should know
You should know that I'm thinking of you
Up and down I5 more often than a serial killer
Like a smuggler
Like a trucker
Drinking when I should be sleeping
Sleeping when I should be waking up
Never hung over
Either wide awake or way too drunk
The only thing
Only thing I ever wanted
Is gonna fuck you over
Is gonna fuck us up
The only thing
That I ever wanted
I never wanted you (I never wanted you)
To be a sailors girl (to be a sailors girl)
To be a truckers wife (to be a truckers wife)
To be left behind (to be left behind)
You should know
You should know that I'm thinking of you
Up and down I5
More often than a serial killer
Like a smuggler
Like a trucker
Drinking when I should be sleeping
Sleeping when I should be waking up
Should be waking up
The only thing
Only thing I ever wanted
Is gonna fuck you over
Is gonna fuck us up
I never wanted you (I never wanted you)
To be a sailors girl (to be a sailors girl)
To be a truckers wife (to be a truckers wife)
To be left
To be left behind
And I wonder
If you'll be there when I get back
Or will you leave me
Like I left you
Over
And over
And over
I never wanted you
To be left behind
To be left behind
I never wanted you
To be a sailors girl
To be a truckers wife
To be left behind
And I wonder
I wonder if you'll be there
When I get back
Or will you leave me
Like I left you
Like I left you over and over
Like I left you
Over and over
Over and over
Over and over
Over and over
